2.Phuket: Game Fishing and Trolling Boat Trip with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 40 reviews · 8 hours · from $125

Spend eight hours trolling and bottom fishing from Ao Chalong to Racha Yai, with a guide and crew helping you handle the gear. Your catch may become fresh sashimi or part of lunch on board. The day also includes swimming, snorkeling, soft drinks, fruit, hotel transfers, and a return cruise.

“The whole trip was very well organised, from the hotel pick ups, booking in at the tour operator's office and boarding the boat at the pier. The guide and 2 crew were friendly and very helpful, especially during the fishing. Soft drinks and snacks were available at all times. The deep sea trolling was a success and we caught 8 tuna with 3 escapees. Lunch was very good with the opportunity to eat our catch with swimming and snorkeling if you wanted to, before setting off again to try bottom fishing. Again a success with 7 caught. Back into Phuket and a transfer back to the hotel. Very enjoyable”
